But racist thought is not just alive and well in America—it is more sophisticated and more insidious than ever. As award-winning historian Ibram X. Kendi argues, racist ideas have a long and lingering history, one in which nearly every great American thinker is complicit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this deeply researched and fast-moving narrative, Kendi chronicles the entire story of anti-black racist ideas and their staggering power over the course of American history. He uses the life stories of five major American intellectuals to drive this history: Puritan minister Cotton Mather, Thomas Jefferson, abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, W.E.B. Du Bois, and legendary activist Angela Davis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs Kendi shows, racist ideas did not arise from ignorance or hatred. They were created to justify and rationalise deeply entrenched racist policies and the nation's racial inequities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn shedding light on this history, \u003cem\u003eStamped from the Beginning\u003c\/em\u003e offers us the tools we need to expose racist thinking.
